Dwayne Nii-Teiko Sackey

Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I talk with Portland-based potters Chris Baskin and Dwayne Nii-Teiko Sackey. We talk about choosing a firing that fits your aesthetic, the benefits of apprenticeship, and how Sackey’s time with Baskin shifted forms during Covid. We also discuss the Studio Potter’s Grants for Apprenticeship, which helped fund and structure their yearlong apprenticeship. For more info visit www.chrisbaskin.com, www.dwaynesackey.com, and www.studiopotter.org/apprenticeship-grants.   Today’s episode is brought to you by the following sponsors:   The Tales of the Red Clay Rambler is made possible in part by STARworks, host of the 2022 WoodFire NC International Conference. The conference will kick off May 21st with two pre-conference events happening simultaneously in Asheville and Seagrove, where visiting artists will load and fire a variety of wood firing kilns. The main conference runs from May 26th to May 29th, 2022 at STARworks in Star, NC and features artists from around the world discussing the future of wood fired ceramics. For more information, please visit www.woodfirenc.com.   For the past 100 years, AMACO Brent has been creating ceramic supplies for our community ranging from underglazes to electric kilns, and they have no plans of slowing down. www.amaco.com   Skutt Ceramic Products has been manufacturing equipment for potters since 1953. Their KilnMaster Touchscreen controller offers a sleek, smartphone-like interface that is intuitive and packed with powerful tools that allow potters to easily program, diagnose, and remotely monitor their kilns. www.skutt.com.
